The Hand & Flowers

Popped in last night for a few drinks and ended up staying for dinner. New refurb is lovely, staff very friendly and a nice cosy atmosphere. The pizza’s were the best we have ever had!!! Will definately be back – quite possibly the best / nicest pub in maidenhead.

very nice pub!

This is my fav Pub in Maidenhead now with new refit. Staff are friendly, service is great, live music and the pizza’s are AMAZING. Small but that adds to its charm!

It was used to be a very nice pub ran by a lovely female for more than 10 years.
Re-opened on May/July this year but I could hardy see anything inside, curtains and blinds were down most of time .When I went in on a Friday lunch time just about 1:50, I was refused to be served, it would have been the first pint of my day before the weekend and I only tried to have a quick pint before getting back at work at 2:15 pm.
However, this is the first time that ever happened to me in my life, being refused to get serve in a pub, and I am almost 50-year-old.
People said pub landlords don’t have to give any reasons and he only said ‘sorry I can’t serve you, go somewhere else’, before I can hardly say a word to ask for a drink. Might be this is my fault, my face, my look , whatever I wore… etc.
Sorry I cannot make any comments about the drink, the food, the look inside…etc.

Might be this not my type of pub because I could found out myself, the landlord already implied that. Good luck to him…

I gave it one star because it does not accept 0

Great little pub in central Maidenhead. Nicely done inside, pleasing simple decor whether in a booth or propping up the bar.

Friendly staff. Several real ales on, including some local Berkshire ones.

The parrot perched in the corner isn’t as loud as he used to be 20 years ago, I’m told.

Very small pub, but it’s perfect for those who like proper ales and don’t want to hang out in a piped-music same-same chain pub.

A traditional pub with a decent range of beer. Fine for a pint.

The most endearing quality is the parrot that lives behind the bar and occasionally “visits” customers!
